Kylek do you still have a link to your 1.52 build (or even 1.53)?
Its the only version that is accepted by every private tracker I use.
Thanks.
Of Course :)
(Strange trackers you use. Do they at least tell you why other versions aren't allowed?)

Thanks!
Yeah one tracker in particular has an extremely slow adoption of new versions. I pretty much need to stay at least a few months behind the times. New versions aren't allowed until they have time to test them. Transmission seems to be on the bottom of their test list.

I don't get it. Whenever I try to download transmission from KyleK's site, I always get a 'server did not respond' error. I've tried it with different browsers, from different locations even, recently, from different continents!
How do you guys succeed in downloading this stuff?
KyleK, if you're reading this, is your site only reachable at specific hours or such?

@kikashi
The site is up and running, all files are available. Depending on where you are (e.g. at work) you might have problems with the non-standard port (my webserver runs on port 31337, not the default 80), because some places block any ports other than the default ones (21, 80,443).

Thanks for the reply KyleK. I found out that my ISP blocks traffic to port 31337. Apparantly because it is used by a malware called BO (back orifice?). Nice, but I would prefer them to let *me* decide what security precautions to take >^(.
Anyone who knows how I can bypass this blocking ?

Victory at last :^). I used the free proxy at http://www.proxapp.com to download. Thanks for all the help!

@KRH: thanks for your help, but that wasn't the problem. Your screenshot shows how to change transmission's port but I could not download transmission itself from KyleK's website because it is running on port 31337. But that's solved now...

I just got my 323 today and installed the latest revision of Transmission. Is it normal for this BitTorrent client to get far lower speeds than uTorrent? Transmission hasnt hit half the speeds I typically get with uTorrent and I have been trying for hours.
Port forwarding works perfectly. My Transmission settings are:

Hmm, its possible I am being throttled by Bell (my ISP). It has happened frequently in the past but not recently. Still, any general opinions about Transmission would be welcome.
Offline
I haven't done any real comparisons lately, but I can't really complain about my Transmission speeds. I easily reach 1MB/s on private sites, public torrents are slower though.
Remember that the NAS might be limite by its CPU and low amount of RAM, so don't load up tons of torrents at once. Also note that T doesn't know DHT (yet), so it might find fewer peers.
Try downloading the latest Ubuntu image, or OpenOffice. These usually max out my line.

Edit:
Found my problem.
Thank You

I typically can get equal speeds with Transission on my NAS, as i could with Utorrent on my PC.
The major exceptions, is i can Leech far fewer torrents at the same time, and have far fewer connections per torrent.
So if you are on a torrent with 10s of thousands of slow seeds, you may see better speeds with Utorrent, because you can allow more connections.
But a torrent with a few high speed seeds, will do just as well on the NAS.
As far as I can tell, this is a limitation of the hardware, not Transmission itself. And yes, lack of DHT may effect performance a bit on a public tracker.

Looks like Transmission 1.7 is out with several nice bugfixes http://www.transmissionbt.com/ . Anyone can compile it for CH3SNAS?
Offline
there is already version 1.7 which has bug corrected:
Fix 1.61 bug that broke adding torrents via the web client
PLEASE do package with this version!
THANK YOU!
Offline
Looks like a good maintenance release, all of us were experiencing several of the problems listed in the fixes.

Hi all,
Not sure if this is the best place to ask, but does anyone know of a way to get transmission to show which tracker each torrent is using from the command line? Would like to have a line in a torrent watch script which will let torrents from certain trackers seed longer than others. Anyone have any ideas? ... I'm using transmission 1.52 if that matters.
Cheers,
B

It doesn't answer your question, but:
You can add a torrent and give it a maximum seed ratio. When the limit is reached, Transmission pauses the torrent.
Maybe this works good enough for you and you won't have to write a script
Offline
$ transmission-remote -l $ transmission-remote -t <id> -i
The first command lists all torrents, and each one gets an ID. Use the second one to get information about each individual torrent. That includes the tracker as well.

Transmission v1.70 is up, check it in the first post. Haven't had time to test this one, so if issues arise I'm not to be blamed
Have fun.

Hi Kylek,
Thank you for the quick update!
I've upgraded from 1.51->1.70 by using:
......./ffp/start/transmission.sh stop wget http://kylek.is-a-geek.org:31337/files/Transmission-1.70-2.tgz funpkg -r Transmission-1.51.tgz funpkg -i Transmission-1.70-2.tgz ......./ffp/start/transmission.sh start
Transmission is now using only 7% of memory instead of 29%!
I'm still missing two features however:
1. Automatically move completed files to an other directory (like 'completed')
2. Set a maximum share ratio (like 2.0) before moving the files.
Is it possible to configure this somewhere?

Cheers, but I already have a working watch folder script, but I'm trying to add this little functionality myself... Looks like I may have to do the additional seeding manually ...
